(function() { P.when('cr-A', 'ready').execute(function(A) { if(typeof A.toggleExpanderAriaLabel === 'function') { A.toggleExpanderAriaLabel('review_text_read_more', 'Read more of this review', 'Read less of this review'); } }); })(); .review-text-read-more-expander:focus-visible { outline: 2px solid #2162a1; outline-offset: 2px; border-radius: 5px; } Like most on here, this took a little more setting up than I was expecting. Being new to 3d printing, I was wondering why things weren't sticking to the bed. Self leveling works really well but....yes there's a but. I did learn much in a very few days. Do your self a favor and download a bed test layout on "thingiverse". The Z axis offset will need tweaking and tweaking until you see tech suddenly working.All in all, to me, it seems really well made. There's weight and quality. Quiet, oh so quiet. Now I've got the bed sorted, the prints are amazing. I'm getting used to Cura 3d, which is one of the software packages for slicing your project and outputting it in your printers code. Slicing does what it says. Takes a sculpture and creates the layers your printer will print it in. I've took the next step with freecad which will allow me to create the drawings myself, or even amend ones already created by other very talented people.(not me I'm not talented)I'm loving it so far. Was frustrated if I'm honest, at the start, the bed test print saved me.If you buy this or any printer, you will want the filament too, you get a little roll in this box, but you're going to use loads once you get going. Excellent kit. Heated bed, removable sei magnetic bed plate. small foot print on your table top. Buy it and enjoy it as much as me.....cool.Update:As stated earlier, the bed took some leveling, and for me, being a newbie with 3d printers, well, this was actually a good learning curve. If you have just bought this machine, do yourself the favor of downloading a bed test layout. This will save your sanity, trust me. The Z axis will need offsetting. I have added the photo of the Robocop bust I just printed. I've had several excellent results now, but this is the best. 150mm high. Biggest job printed, scarily long time, 16 hours in all. Well pleased. This is a cool piece of kit. Love it.

5.0 out of 5 stars A good fun experience with a learning curve

The media could not be loaded. **EDIT ADDED 27thFEB 23**Just wanted to put this in here so might help someone else. Not long after I wrote the review below I started suffering multiple issues. The replacement print head they sent me broke, thus needing another, that's 3 printheads in as many months including the original. The bed levelling & z-offset would randomly change causing the nozzle to crash onto the bed. I had constant blockage thus needing to take things apart to fix. More recently I started getting errors on screen & it suddenly start showing everthing in Chinese! Only way to fix was to reflash the firmware. Anycubic support are OK when they answer, usually next working day, but spares take 3 weeks from China to UK. I also had multiple printing problems with unstable temp running up & down. I contatcted Bolo about the issues & they offered me to return the machine for a refund, many thanks Bolo, saved me some headaches.Sorry if this review is rather long, but hoefully you'll find it worth it.It took me a while to choose this printer. I am brand new to 3D printing & so the choice is quite overwhelming, but having been given Bolo vouchers for Xmas & with a determination to try it out, I went ahead & plumped for the Anycubic Kobra Neo. The Neo seems like a good starting place with it's automatic levelling & all the niceties that a newbie would want. Just as some background, I am quite tech savvy having run my own computer build & repair service in the past. Anyway, the delivery came, along with a couple of different colour spools of PLA & I set to work.The unit is very well presented & packaged. I would suggest (as do Anycubic) that you unpack everything first & lay it out for ease of locating items. I would say the most awkward part is affixing the frame to the base, & although it's only 4 screws it's just holding it in place while you get an initial bite on the screws, after that, take your time & enjoy it. Everything you need is provided & I didn't need any extra tools.Once I had it all together I did the tests, like self levelling & fed in the test PLA media. Once all that was done I poped the included SD card in & told it to print the owl test print. That's where things went downhill! It did not stick to the base & got picked up with the print head & turned into a nice little mess. I realised at this point that I had made a crucial error, I had not done the paper test!! What's a paper test? Good point as altough you hear the term everywhere it's hard to get exact instructions on how to do it. In the end I found a helpful video on Youtube that showed me exactly what I was doing wrong & it was on the same model. Sadly, I cannot post that link here as I believe it's against Bolos TOS. If you search youtube for "setting z-offset on anycubic kobra neo" by Chris Jacoby you should find it & it's much easier to see the process than me trying to explain it.Now that was all done, I tried to print again. Success it seemed, the print startted nicely & stuck well (or so i thought) I decided as this would take a while to go & get a cuppa, it must have been around the moment I left the room that the problem started. The print head picked the print up from the base again & carried it on its merry way to print the model, this quickly turned into a big mess & when I came back with my cuppa I have to admit to using a few choice phrases. I cleaned everything up (again) & set to trying, while I was here to see what went wrong, but no matter what I tried I could not get the media to feed. After a while I gave up & contacted Anycubic & told them what had happened & credit where credit is due the next day they sent a reply & told me they will send a brand new printhead FOC. Wow a company with good CS. I have since learnt though that you can buy (from Bolo of course) a cleaning kit of 0.4mm stainless steel needles to clean the nozzle with, trust me, buy them. They are only a couple of quid & well worth it, also, while youre at it get some canned air & alcohol wipes, these will make the world of difference.Anyway after getting everything working again, oddly enough with a different media by eSun, the machine did not like the test media, I got things going again. I was still having issues with getting the print to stick to the bed. Apparently this is a big & very common issue & while there are various fixes, such as mixing up a PVA glue & water mixture to put on the bed, I found all of them to be ineffectual. There is a specific glue for the job, which I have since ordered from Bolo. Actually, there are a number of glues but I plumped for a Faeel 3D printer glue stick, which has some great reviews.Despite the issues I have greatly enjoyed my learning journey, so if like me you like messing around, learning new things & experimenting, you will love this machine. It seems highly adaptable & also you can buy spare parts from Anycubic, so if you break something you haven't wasted £230 quid, just the price of the part, which seems pretty reasonable to me.Hopefully by reading my story, if you made it this far, I have saved you some issues. I look forward to many experiments with future prints. I have attached a video of the machine in action, so you can hear noise levels etc. This video was taken just before the major foul up, so keep an eye on it! The machine is far from silent as it has a couple of cooling fans to keep the electronics etc cool while heating the nozzle to a potential 230 degrees & the hot bed to a potential 100 degrees, so be careful!!I heartily recommend this unit to any budding experimenters, fiddlers & those wanting to learn. If you are looking for an out of the box plug it in & print, then go elsewhere & pay significantly more. I also have to credit Anycubic for great CS who even apologised for the time difference as they are in China. Happy printing!

4.0 out of 5 stars Pretty good for the entry level price

I bought the Anycubik Cobra Neo after returning a Creatility Neo that a part died on.It suffers from not having an adjustable bed. I had to literally bend the chassis of the machine to get it to start printing level. I am a beginner so there’s a chance I could have got something wrong to have to do this but that was the only way I could seem to get it to stop throwing the print off the bed when the head kept hitting it.Months on, I’ve got on fairly well with it. I find I need to apply PVA glue to the bed or the head hits the print after a few layers and ruins the project. The PVA seems to hold it so well that it gets away with light collisions.Quite a good 3d printer to get started with. Much, MUCH better looking than the Creality equivalent. Better display too. Quite impressed

Recensione dopo 3 mesi...

l. · 3 May 2025

(function() { P.when('cr-A', 'ready').execute(function(A) { if(typeof A.toggleExpanderAriaLabel === 'function') { A.toggleExpanderAriaLabel('review_text_read_more', 'Read more of this review', 'Read less of this review'); } }); })(); .review-text-read-more-expander:focus-visible { outline: 2px solid #2162a1; outline-offset: 2px; border-radius: 5px; } Ho voluto attendere un po' prima di farne una recensione, e lo faccio adesso dopo tre mesi di utilizzo. La qualità costruttiva è, secondo me, eccezionale (come lo era anche quella della Kobra 3), l'imballo all'altezza dei corrieri anche più "selvaggi". La facilità d'uso pure. Gli aggiornamenti avvengono in tempi rapidi e senza intoppi (ci sono stati 4 aggiornamenti firmware da quando la uso) e ci tengo a raccomandare la ricalibrazione completa dopo ogni aggiornamento. Io non ho ancora mai avuto una stampa da buttare via, è sempre filato tutto liscio. La telecamera funziona egregiamente ed è bello poter controllare l'andamento della stampa da ovunque. La qualità delle stampe è ottima, per quello che mi concerne. Io sono contento. L'ho presa senza unità Ace perché per ora non mi serve, ma credo di acquistarla prima o poi, anche perché mi viene comodo asciugare i filamenti. L'ho acquistata con assurant compresa, che non si sa mai. 5 Stelle per me.

Perfekter 3D Drucker für den Einstieg

P. · 5 January 2024

Nachdem ich den Drucker nun seit fast 1 Jahr in Gebrauch habe, möchte ich gern meine Erfahrungen teilen.Der Anycubic Kobra Neo ist mein erster 3D Drucker und ich habe vorab viele Vergleiche angestellt und Rezensionen gelesen. Zusammenfassend kann man sagen er erweist sich als super Einstiegsdrucker und auch für fortgeschrittene Drucke ist er durchaus zu gebrauchen.Gut verpackt kam er geliefert und neben etwas Filament (Definitiv direkt weiteres Filament mitbestellen) lag auch ein kleiner Seitenschneider dabei um das Filament abschneiden zu können und eine Micro SD Karte mit Beispieldrucken.Der Zusammenbau klappt sehr zügig sodass der Drucker recht schnell und einfach einsatzbereit ist.Mithilfe von Youtube direkt mal nach Tipps geschaut zum Erstbetrieb und eine Kalibrierung durchgeführt.Mit einer Druckvorlage direkt solche Kalibrierungs-Pads gedruckt und dadurch das Druckbett zügig eingestellt. Danach einen XYZ Würfel gedruckt und da dies wunderbar geklappt hatte gleich die Testeule auf der Speicherkarte hinterhergedruckt (Ups, beiligendes Filament schon alle)Darauf folgten diverse weitere Drucke und Tests von verschiedenen Filamenten und ich kann nur eine klare Kaufempfehlung geben!+ Preis/Leistung+ Handhabung+ Verarbeitung+ Druckergebnis0 Lautstärke (Er ist schon recht leise im Vergleich zu anderen die ich gesehen/gehört habe- Kalibrierung muss nach ein paar Wochen Nutzung wiederholt werden, auch wenn das Gerät am gleichen Ort und auf fester Unterlage steht, geht aber zügig (2-5 Minuten)

Si quieres tirar el dinero! Esta máquina es para ti!

The media could not be loaded. es un autentica basura.problemas de Banding desde el primer dia, la fijación del hotend es completamente ridícula. Fallos de nivelación con el perfil por defecto, problemas de temperatura en hotend... no es apta para materiales con tecnicos ni siquiera ABS, trae un teflon de la peor calidad y mil cosas más. Sinceramente es tirar el dinero.

Ottima stampante 3d per chi inizia

L. · 15 August 2024

Stampante silenziosa ed eccezionale, facile da montare ma con le dovute attenzioni essendo comunque prodotti molto delicati cosa che non tutti capiscono.Lavora in maniera perfetta SOLO se impostata bene sia tramite programma PC CURA che come allineamento asse Z.Chi dice che la stampante NON FUNZIONA è solo perché non ha alcuna competenza, non basta fare autolivellamento e allora è pronta.

Achetez les yeux fermés
